Our NEW Book: The Elimination Diet….plus FREE Gifts!

Over the last ten years, thousands of people have let go of migraine suffering, arthritis pain, skin problems, and mood issues by following our Elimination Diet. And now this powerful Functional Medicine tool can be found in a comprehensive hardcover book! The Elimination Diet (March 31st, 2015) is up for pre-order and with it comes some fabulous gifts I've been working on…a FREE Elimination Diet Cookbook and Quick Start Guide (see below).

Studies on Elimination Diets have demonstrated:

100% of Gallbladder disease improved

90% of Rheumatoid Arthritis pain lessened

85% of Migraine sufferers found relief

70% of Mood/Behavior symptoms of ADD were lessened

50% of Skin issues like atopic dermatitis got better

The Elimination Diet book clearly explains why so many people are reacting to foods these days and gives you a practical tool as to what you can do about it. Through Tom’s Functional Medicine science and cases studies, and my recipes and cooking tips, you will gain all of the information you need to transform your health and your life.

In other words, you will learn how to get to the root of your symptoms by using the process of the elimination diet. But there's more. This book is not just about the diet. It's a guidebook to elevate your health and your family's health to the next level. Because food has the power to heal and the power to harm. Think about it. What is the one thing that our body comes in contact most with during the day? Food! In fact the average human will consume over 25 tons of food over the course of a lifetime.

Odds are that foods you are eating every day are leaving you sick and tired. How do you find out which ones? The Elimination Diet. This foundational tool of Functional Medicine has been used for centuries to discover which foods are making you ill and which ones make you feel incredible.

The program outlined in our new The Elimination Diet book has been completely updated and revised from the old program you may have in the 2007 edition of The Whole Life Nutrition Cookbook. We've taken 10 years of clinical data and research to create the most up-to-date program that can help the widest audience. You will find plenty of variations in the book for various health conditions and life stages as well.

From the forward by Jeffrey Bland, founder of The Institute for Functional Medicine:

"A welcome relief for readers who have suffered for years with chronic health problems and are desperate for a solution."

-Jeffrey Bland, PhD, FACN

Just bought pre-ordered The Elimination Diet and received the gifts. Really beautiful photography! Loved looking at the recipes and am looking forward to cooking! Your cookbooks are a permanent fixture on my kitchen counter. Thank you!

On day 2 and already feel 10 times better physically and mentally. I was amazed that I could actually give up coffee. Thanks Ali and Tom for your wonderful cookbooks and this book. Truly your work has changed my relationship with food. Very grateful! SG

I just ordered my book and have both the nourishing meals cookbook and the latest whole life nutrition book. I'm wondering if it would be worthwhile to get a copy of the 2007 version - are there different recipes in that version?

Lemon water is a great alternative. It may be the sugar that you are craving in the morning. Before you go to bed, let your water sit in strawberries, blueberries.. any fruit that you love. When you wake up, you'll have an amazing fruit refreshing drink!

You can check out my Nourishing Meals cookbook where I have the best gluten-free and vegan sandwich bread recipes (made without xanthan gum). :) https://wholelifenutrition.net/store/books/nourishing-meals-cookbook

Yes you sure can get the bonuses! Just hop on over to our website and enter in your info. If you don't see them right away in your inbox, then check you spam/junk/promotions folders for them. Also be sure to add "info@wholelifenutrition.net" to your email address book. Enjoy! :)

I just found out by process of elimination that I have a gluten intolerance. Since then I have been trying all sorts of gluten-free products to regain my sense of "normal". However, Udi's Gluten free bread gave me more issues than regular flour bread ever has! I'm wondering if you think I should try making homemade or just swear off bread in general?

Welcome to my blog!

Hi! My name is Alissa Segersten and I've had a love of healthy food and cooking since the age of 10. When I was pregnant with my first daughter in 2001, I diligently began writing down my recipes because so many people would ask for them! Some of these recipes appeared in my first book, The Whole Life Nutrition Cookbook. I now have 5 children and am passionate about educating them about our food system so they can make the most informed choices as they grow up and are exposed to a world of processed, chemical-laden foods. Join me in my mission of helping to support families with nourishing meals!
